Ex Hex – Rips [Vinyl]

2014 vinyl LP pressing with download code. Ex Hex are a power trio from Washington, DC, making the music you’ve been waiting for. Drums, bass, guitar, P90s, searing leads-this is unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll spat out in the discipline’s mother tongue. The band are Mary Timony (Autoclave, Helium) & Laura Harris (The Aquarium, Benjy Ferree), Betsy Wright. In the Spring of 2014 they, headed into the studio. Working furiously, they recorded over the span of two weeks in North Carolina with Mitch Easter (Let’s Active) and in the basement of Mary’s home with frequent collaborator Jonah Takagi. Bobby Harlow (The Go, Conspiracy of Owls) was tapped to mix because of his unique take on making rock records. What results is Ex Hex Rips, twelve songs about underdogs, guys stealing your wallet, schoolyard brawls, and getting bent. The record happens pretty quickly, so don’t blink.
